Wayne Warriors RB DeShawn Thompson Enters Transfer Portal
Wayne Warriors junior running back DeShawn Thompson has entered the transfer portal, citing a family relocation as the reason. Thompson's decision comes at a critical time for the Warriors, who are facing a scarcity of experienced running backs in their 2026 lineup. The 5-foot-10, 190-pound back has been a key contributor for the Warriors, rushing for over 1,000 yards as a sophomore. His loss would be a significant blow to the program, which is looking to build on a 6-5 season in 2025. According to sources, Thompson is being recruited by several top programs in Ohio and neighboring states, including Michigan and Pennsylvania.
